If it's a terminal board, particularly that type, yeah...no easy hope.
But again, if it had been some weird thing where it was AT and they just used a d-sub (not unheard of, consider how AT and PS/2 are the same thing with different connectors) that'd be good.
Someone with knowledge of what's supposed to be inside an F could perhaps point out what the specific parts inside are. Hopefully having those pics will prove useful at some point (I can't give a verdict, like I said).
